摘要
Background: Omental infarction (OI) is a rare cause of acute abdominal pain, which is benign and self-limited. It is diagnosed by imaging. The etiology of OI is either idiopathic or secondary and due to torsion, trauma, hypercoagulability, vasculitis, or pancreatitis. Case Report: Here, we present a case of OI in a child with acute severe right upper quadrant pain. Why Should an Emergency Physician Be Aware of This?: Correct diagnosis of OI via imaging can prevent unnecessary surgery. (c) 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
